+### With a fixed length
+
+Use `[value; length]` to make a list whose items all start with the same value.
+
+```goboscript
+list scores = [0; 1000]; # 1,000 items, all set to 0.
+list names = [""; 25]; # 25 empty strings.
+```
+
+This form also works with struct lists. The starting value is used for each field.
+
+```goboscript
+struct point {x, y}
+list point points = [0; 100]; # 100 points whose x and y fields are both 0.
+```
+
+The length cannot be negative, infinite, `NaN`, or greater than 200,000.

 ### Read contents from a text file
 
 This allows you to load a text file line-by-line into a list of strings.
